How much does the Republic Lagun UTC-22120 cost?
Price estimate
We do not have a price for the Republic Lagun UTC-22120 that we can stand behind, so we show no number. Configuration, options and installation move the final price a long way: a quote is the reliable figure.
Overview
At 113 in (2,870 mm) between centers the UTC-22120 is the longest lathe in Republic Lagun's Universal Turning Center table. It keeps the Ø 22 in (550 mm) swing, Ø 12.8 in (325 mm) working diameter and 11.8 in (300 mm) X travel of the shorter 22 in models and adds bed until the working length reaches 105.5 in (2,680 mm).
The one mechanical change the table records is the Z axis ball screw. It is Ø 2.48 in (63 mm) on this model, against Ø 1.97 in (50 mm) on the UTC-2280, a sensible step for a screw that has to span 109.4 in (2,780 mm) of travel without whipping. The X screw is Ø 0.98 in (25 mm) as on the other models of the family.
A part that fills this bed is long in proportion to anything the cross slide can reach, so support matters. The tailstock offers a Ø 3.35 in (85 mm) quill, #5 MT taper and 7 in (178 mm) of quill travel. The maker's table lists no steady rest or follow rest, and those should be discussed before ordering for slender shafts. Spindle speed is 35-3,500 rpm from an AC 12 HP (9 kW) Fanuc AC spindle motor, and the low end of that range is where most work of this length will run.
Everything else scales with the bed. The coolant tank is 63.40 gal (240 liters). Packing size is 204.7 in x 90.6 in x 87.8 in (5,200 mm x 2,300 mm x 2,230 mm), and the machine weighs 5,300 kg (11,684 lb) net and 6,000 kg (13,228 lb) gross. Republic Lagun says these lathes are built and tested in its Los Angeles plant.
